The articles

Over the next few months I shall be contributing a series of articles exclusively available via the bigcats.org web pages. My contribution is an endorsement of Dr Christina A. Smiths hard work building the definitive website for the study of free-living exotic cats in Great Britain.

For my first article I felt it was important to have a critical review and appraisal of the official activity that has taken place in relation to big cats in Great Britain. I have titled the piece The Ubiquitous Beast and have tried to make it interesting and diverse in its scope.

A copy of the Bodmin Moor Investigation Report can be purchased from:
MAFF Publications, London. SE99 7TP
(Tel: 0645 556000) This has probably been changed since publication of the Report.
The Report is Crown copyright 1995 and costs 5 pounds per copy.

Sidebar image: Lord Forsyth of Drumlean (Secretary of State for Scotland 1995 - 1997), ignores the presence of big cats.
